Errands on Tuesday

 

Miniature Roses

M brought me these miniature roses from his garden; each rose is less than half an inch across!  

Tuesday was another cloudy grey day.  Typical of what is called, "May Gray" by the weather forecasters.  

I spent a relaxed morning, but, in the afternoon, I ran some errands.  I went to the pharmacy first, to pick up one of my medication refills that was ready.  I received another $2 "Extra Care Bucks" coupon and I found one type of cereal that was on sale for $1.99 a box and bought it.  Most of the other cereals that I normally buy, which used to go on sale for $1.99 a box are now on sale for $2.99 a box, but, this particualr cereal was still priced at $1.99.

After that, I put gas to the car.  Gas has gone up to $6.09 at the lowest priced gas station in my neighborhood.  I put my usual $50 worth of gas as that's what I currently budget for gas.  

Then, I went to the library to pick up two books that I had put on hold.  There is one other book that is also on hold, which has not arrived, yet.  

After running my errands, I came home and made some tea. 

Later, I went with my daughter to the community college so she could attend the open gym to do her gymnastics.  Once again, I waited in the car and read while she did her gymnastics.  Daughter drove us there and back.

We had cold cuts sandwiches for brunch, on Tuesday.  For dinner, I cooked a fresh pot of rice and made a cucumber salad and we had leftover keema curry.  We had leftover lemon squares that daughter's friend A had made with lemons we had given her and brought over on Monday night.  We gave her more lemons in return.  

I also called friend R and chatted with her, after dinner.

On Tuesday, I was grateful for:

- The availability of medications
- Cereal on sale
- The availability of gas
- Daughter was able to do her gymnastics
- A safe drive to the gym and back

Tuesday's joyful activities included reading and watching videos online.

Plans for Wednesday include:

- Tending to the garden with M
- Doing some paperwork 
- Some housework

How was your Tuesday?  What are your plans for Wednesday?
